a life-like and powerful picture OF the
romantic era in the history of Texas forty
years ago, this mastery story of love and
adventure deals with the chivalrous side
of Indian life, the magnificent daring of
the famous Texan Rangers, the patri-
archal and hospitabIe manners Of the race
of opulent Southern planters, and a con-
dition of affairs on the border which has
now become historical and which affords
magnificent scope to the pen of the novel
ist. From first to last the reader is
treated to a rapidly moving panorama of
startling events and situations which
keep the mind intent and the interest IN
abated. The first chapters of this thrill
ing romance will appear in the Fort

the Fort Worth and Rio GraRde will be

the st. Louis, Arkansas and Texas is now

east and will complete the extension be-

roads which the people of this city know

twelve months, giving US ten roads and
thirteen outlets.
A glance at the map of Texas will show
the territory trsversed by these roads

THE USUAL KAT.

1t is the Fort Worth way, to lead the
procession and ever score point on the
town on the Trinity, thirty miles east of
this metropolis. 1t shows itself under all
circumstances, no matter what the eX-
igency. Here is the latest illustration,
and it is true as holy writ. 1t was at
the prohibition convention in Waco the
other day, and Fort Worth was represent
ed there, as she is in everything that is
legitimate and progressive. The brethren
were raising that campaign fund (which,
by the way, they sweIled to over $4,000,
and the enthusiasm was red hot. Towns
were being called for, and the responses
were prompt and liberal. Fort Worth
had been among the first to chip in with
her contribution, and after a while some
body discovered Dallas wasn't chipping in
to any marked extent. A rather painful
silence would ensGe when Dallas was
called until q Fort Worth delegate arose
and said: "Fort Worth will stand for
Dallas for 500; put Dallas down for that
figure and Wen see it paid" The house
roared and Dallas was charged with the
500. To be just we will add that it is
stated the Dallas delegates did not hap
pen to be in the room JUS at the time the
calls were being made Tor their town, and
that they will cleerfully make good the
promise made for them BY the Fort, but
the incident created a general laugh at
the expense of Dallas and WAS accepted
as another Of the numerous Illustrations
afforded of the spirit and style of the two
towns. It has ever been thus, since Fort
Worth became a town, and we suppose it
will so continue until the end of time.

POPE LEO as 4 DIPL OMATTST.
Pope Leo is proving himself q master
in the of diplomacy. His influence in the
recent elections in Germany gave the
government the desired majority in the
Reichstag and enabled Prince Bismarck
to carry the septennate military measure
to success. The Kaiser and Bismarck
are grateful, and as q return for the
kindly offices of the Vatican, German
Catholics can count with confidence on
enjoying, at an early day, many privileges
that have been denied them in years past.
In France, as in Germany, the attitude of
the government (since the establishment
of the repubIic) toward the Catholic
church has been anything else but kindly
and conciliatory. In many respects the
French government has been more rgor-
Gus in its policy toward the church than
Bismarck ever was. Apparently the
French authorities are gravitating to the
conclusion that there is some
thing to be gained by moderating
this policy and cultivating kindlier
relations with Rome, for late cable dis
patches state that overtures looking to
such q policy have been made by the
French Premier TO the Vatican. This in
timation was preceded by similar over
lures made by the government to the
French bishops, and, as matter of fact,
the bishops and the government reached
a satisfactory understanding, which the
Holy See will now be asked to ratify. If
this is done, and there seems every
reason to believe it will, the present Pope
will have accomplished a great work IN
bringing about revision of the policy
so long pursued by the two great govern
ments of Germany and France toward
the church and Catholics. Leo bids fair
to 60 down to history as one of the great
est diplomatists who las ever sat i'll St.
Peters chair, and what is creditable to
him his talents in this line have been eX-
ercised in the interests of peace
and civilization, albeit in this case Of
Germany he was compelled to figure as
the advocate Of a great military system.

FEW, perhaps, are appraised of the fact
that the powder supply for morning and
evening guns at military posts was part
of the store used in converting rebels
from the error of their way. NeVerthe-
less such is the case, and it is proof fthat
the missionary government expected a
long job from the amount of stock laid in
to do the work. The supply is now ex-
heusted as are also funds for further
purchase, and the order comes from the
ordnance department that the firing Of
these guns shall be discontinued except
st West Point, at Fort Monroe and at
Fort Leavenworth.

ASA DISTPTBUTJNG POINT.

The magnificent wholesale business OF
Fort Worth is at once the admiration ard
surprise of the many gentlemen who are
st this time investigating Texas With d
view to investment and location, and who
view with wonderment the immense
wholesale houses in a town so close TO
competing points. These gentlemen are
practical business men and well know
the exact importance to be attached to
business facts and reasons.
Rsdiating from Fort Worth as a center
at this time in daily operation are six
railroads, which give this city nine out
lets by rail, which reach every section of
the state and New Mexico and the Indian
Territory as tributary communities
These railroads are: the Missouri PscifC

bill to protect American vessels against

The bill authorizes the president to pro-

coming from such ports entering ports
of the United States. or from exercising
such privileges therein as he may define.
1t also authorizes the president to forbid
entrance by land from the provinces OF
British North America of all merchandise,
also of all cars, locomotives or other roll

Chesapeake, Ohio & Southwestern rail-
way, one Of the cars was discovered to be
on fire. The crew ~endeavorod to extin-
guish the fire with hose attachments, but
all they could succeed in doing, however.
was to prevent the fire from spreading to
other cars. While removing the debris of
the burned car, dead bodies, charred be-
yond recognition, were discovered. They
are supposed to have been tramps, but
whether white or black it is impossible to
say. The car was locked at Memphis,
and the men must have entered to their
horrible fate through the window in the
end, which could have been opened from

Mrs. Emmons' Sad Story Con-
tlnued.

WASHINGTON, Jan. I7.-Mrs. En-
mons continued her sad story to-day, be-
ginning with her experience at Blooming
dale asylum. When she was taken there,
DR.. Nichols was absent and did not return
for nearly a month. Meanwhile DIR.
Brown had tried to make her take medi-
cine which she believed was doing her
harm. She deceived her nurse and con-
cealed the medicine, and began then to
get better. DIR. Brown discovered that
she had not taken the medicine and came
to her and said he would make her take
it, and talked of stomach pumps and
things of that kind. She said she made
up her mind hat he could not make her
take it. Well she went on, He was
stronger than |, but | made him take one
dose of hat medicine. He took 1t and |
did not see him for three days. When he
came back be was like a cur that had
been whipped and knew that he could not
do the same thing again.
She said that while in the hospital she
tried to forget or not to hear the shrieks
of the people who were really mad. So she
tried 10 amuse and help the people about
her. That" she said was called delu-
sion, want of appreciation of my position.
No, it was not. 1t was because | did not
want to go mad. By helping to amuse
others | could forget my W troubles.
AT night when | wished to sleep" she
went on, Il heard shrieks of those who
were really mad. and then | decided |
must have sleep or 20 mad myself"
She said that the lights we're put out at
9 O'Clock. In order to have something to
occupy her mind, she learned to write in
the dark. She used to write little stories
and every kin1 of nonsense that came into
her head.
Mrs. Emmons then gave an account o.
her removal to the Butler hospital a
Providence, her release and her return t.
Washington.
